Testimonials

Another thing i have noticed while I’ve been here is the way language is so important and yet not at the same time. While it is not so necessary for basic communication, where English and sign language will do (I will be an awesome charades player by the time i return) i think it will be very important in being close with Finnish people.

“Mat” on Exchange in Finland

I am so thankful for being given this opportunity, because it has been amazing so far and I know it will only get better. Thankyou to everyone in Australia and also in Denmark who have made this year possible.

“Kate” on Exchange in Denmark

There have been plenty of other great days but also some average ones struggling with the complicated French language and the school timetable system. But that is to be expected on an exchange, every day is a surprise and I’m looking forward to everyone.

“Patrick” on Exchange in France

I’ve discovered strength within me that I didnt know existed, having to deal with being away from everything that’s familiar did that to me. I’ve learnt how hard leaving your parents for a year can be, but also how capable I am of taking care of myself in many aspects of life.

“Georgia” on Exchange in Germany

As I always say “Listen to your heart and follow your dreams” … its the key to success!
